โœฆ Synopsis


In this fast and furious crime novel set in 1983, a sex worker named Irina absconds with a shipment of drugs and $300,000 in dirty money, setting into motion a wild chain reaction involving bounty hunters, corrupt cops, low-brow scammers, and her bewildered, straight-laced ex-husband. Add to this devil's brew the intoxicating settings of sushi bars, nightclubs, and New Wave art galleries circa the mid-eighties, and you get Straight to the Head : a beguiling, funny novel that blows the roof off traditional crime fiction.

Fraser Nixon is the author of The Man Who Killed , shortlisted for the Amazon.ca Best First Novel Award.
